  • (1:15 PM PDT) H15 Threats from the Shadows Visual Studio Live!

    Modern CI/CD pipelines and software supply chains are critical to delivering software quickly, but they are now also prime targets for attackers. Many organizations are unaware of the many ways that their practices and security approaches may be exposing them to greater risk. In this session we’ll explore some of the vulnerabilities and common misconfigurations that have enabled attackers to compromise secured systems. Attendees will gain actionable insights and learn best practices to identify and mitigate exploits while improving their software delivery.

    Join Ken Muse and Mickey Goussett as we delve into the threat landscape surrounding modern CI/CD pipelines and software supply chains. We will highlight real-world examples of attacks, dissecting how vulnerabilities were exploited and what could have been done to prevent them.

  • (2:45 PM PDT) H19 Crafting Your Codespace Visual Studio Live!

    Every new project requires developers to find ways to code faster and more reliably. Ever wondered how companies like GitHub are able to start projects and onboard developers quickly? The secret is development containers, a way to manage development environments using infrastructure as code. In this session, we’ll dive into GitHub Codespaces and explore how to use them to create consistent, ready-to-run development environments. Participants will learn how to define and build a container from the ground up, add new features, and customize and personalize their environments.

    Join Ken Muse and Mickey Goussett as we explore the world of dev containers and GitHub Codespaces. We’ll cover the fundamentals of development containers, how to create and configure a Codespace, and best practices for managing and sharing these environments across teams.
